Barry’s Bootcamp: L.A. workout studio bulks up for Toronto Location

The newly opened Barry’s Bootcamp, on Richmond St.W. near John St. is both the first in Canada and the largest in the world. High energy, high-end group fitness gyms seem to get big in a major U.S. city, attract celebs fans, and then spread out. Evenutally, they set up digs in Toronto, usually near King or Queen.

Barry’s Bootcamp, a Los Angeles import, is the latest to follow this path. It offers a gritty but fun high-intensity workout with weights that apparently burns 1,000 calories a class.
